Con Tagious

He goes with ego Many go with him Those without ego, Patience is wearing thin He is a traitor, It is clear to see He is a dictator His favourite word is ME He isn't concerned About others, only self How did he become President Why? Of course, for pelf. Power and greed Is all that interests him When is he going to pay For the betrayal and sin, He has caused, without a qualm, When will he be punished? For all the heartbreak and harm He has instigated, And delegated to others, Who are not in a position to refuse To fight their fellow brothers, In a WORLD WAR, How much farther can he go? Before he understands the word NO And has to succumb, To the rule of thumb. And pay for his misdeeds, Before it is too late. How can anyone be in Power for so long? While doing wrong, For goodness sake, please GO. And take your EGO with you, I am afraid you will GROW Stronger like a virus And it would be outrageous, If we all become contagious.
